Welcome to General Memes

Memes for the masses, chuckles for the chosen.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not CruelWe’re here for laughs, not fights.

  • No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
  • No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
  • Keep it light β€” argue in the comments, not with insults

Rule 2: No Forbidden FormatsNot every image deserves immortality on the memmlefield. That means:

  • No spam or scams
  • No porn or sexually explicit content
  • No illegal content (seriously, don’t ruin the fun)
  • NSFW memes must be properly tagged

If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can take care of it.

Otherwise consider this your call to duty. Get posting or laughing. Up to you

There's a bit of a capitalist propaganda over here (even if unintentional). The underpriviledge class in many ways exists because of wealth inequality. And statement like this normalizes putting the burden of the underpriviledge class back on to the working class (this underpriviledged class is often also part of the working class). This will further create wealth inequality.

So yes, we should support underpriviledged class but we should also understand the bigger picture and demand that these supports should come from the owning class either through wealth tax or by increasing the minimum wage etc.

One problem at a time. First we stop the working class and the underprivileged classes from fighting with each other. Then we all team up against the oligarchy.
